Palestine Ssh60

A well used example of a Soviet Ssh60 in use with the Palestinian Forces, very faint approval stamps are still visible but void of any manufacturers ink stamps which are generally found on the interior rear of these helmets.Paint on the Ssh60's and Ssh68's generally had very poor retention and many examples show paint flaked, worn and chipped exposing the red primer beneath. On the front is affixed a thick transfer of the Palestinian flag. (Courtesy: P Thomas Collection)
